ALTEC MODEL 19 CROSSOVER QUESTION

Posted by ssimon@wideopenwest.com on July 13, 2017 at 10:59:44:
After hooking up the 19's to my Mac I can't believe how great they sound! I just received all of the Sonicap Gen I caps and the mills resistors the other day to replace the stock ones. Getting ready to change these out in one speaker and do a comparison test with the other speaker. I noticed on some forums it would be advised to change the wire from the crossover to the drivers with thicker gauge wire. Any thoughts on that? Anything else I should do while I have the crossovers out? I would appreciate any ideas. I'm not a tech by any means but I can follow a few simple directions and solder.
